Despite its reputation as one of the most expensive cities to visit, London remains a tourist favorite for a lot of great reasons. And contrary to popular belief, not every experience worth having in the city comes with a price tag. Here are some of what theatre, movie, and book lovers visiting London can do for free.

Theatres, Movies, and Entertainment

1. Visit the National Threatre at 5.45pm (Monday-Saturday) to catch one of the free concerts and live performances

2. See the free exhibitions currently on display at the National Threatre

3. Walk along the National Threatre’s Sherling Backstage Walkway to see the prop-making, set construction, and other production activities

4. Head out to the Roxy Bar & Screen bar and cinema to watch some of the wide array of free movies it features in its screening room out at the back

5. Make a pit stop at the Shakespeare’s Globe Theater, take a peek or a photo of the iconic theatre. You can also browse through the wide array of items at the souvenir shop

6. Catch the free lunchtime concerts at St Martin-in-the-Fields every Monday, Tuesday and Friday at 1.00pm

7. Watch the Royal Opera House free lunchtime recitals at the Swiss Church in Endell Street. Free tickets are available at a first come first serve basis so make sure to come early to get yours.

8. Visit the Westminster Abbey at 5.30pm to listen to the Abbey’s choir sing

When it comes to spending our free time, nothing beats idling on the couch and watching our favorite shows on Netflix all day – from classic romantic comedy shows like F.R.I.E.N.D.S. right up to today’s generation of scientific fiction shows like Altered Carbon and from timeless horror thrillers like Children of the Corn right up to today’s generation of historical drama shows like The Crown.

Those being said, it’s only right for you to check out these snack ideas if you’re planning to watch Netflix all day this coming weekend:

Marijuana-Infused Brownies

But no, it’s not for the reason that most of us would think about at first. You see, marijuana-infused brownies are perfect for when you’re doing something that you know would take you a long period of time before wanting or even needing to finish it such as that of watching Netflix all day – thanks to marijuana’s natural take on antioxidants that can help boost your energy like no other, no matter how long it may take you to finish what you’re doing. This way, you’ll spend more time enjoying the essence of each and every episode of your favorite show without worrying about you falling asleep and missing out on the important scenes that everyone else has been talking about for weeks.

P.S. And yes, this also goes for those who were able to source their own marijuana garden in their backyards. Neat, right?

Wine-Infused Fries

And no, it’s still not for the reason that most of us would feel about at first. Simply put, wine is everyone’s best friend when it comes to keeping ourselves healthy and fit from the inside and out with its own take of essential nutrients that one would normally just find on fruits and vegetables – and of course, along with you getting enough sleep and exercising religiously daily. But the best part of having anything with wine, especially with something everyone is also best friends with when it comes to keeping ourselves sane and going like fries? It’s you being able to keep yourself healthy and fit even if you’re just idling on the couch and watching Netflix all day.

P.P.S. And yes, this also goes for those who were able to source their own wine garden in their frontyards. Neat as well, right?

Dec, 2017

For those of you who aren’t aware of this straightforward, thrilling game, you better read on so you won’t get left behind!

What is it?

Counter Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) Crash is a simple game where you have to deposit your skins and trade it for virtual money, which you’ll use to gamble.

This game is relatively simple. All you have to do is place a bet before the start of a game and watch the multiplier increase from 1x. The multiplier counter will continue to go up until it “crashes.” If you’ve cashed out before the multiplier goes bust, then you win. If you were too late to cash out, you lose, and you won’t get anything.

Sites

There are various crash sites out there that offer tons of skins. Some sites don’t only offer crash; they also offer dice, roulette, and sweeper games, allowing you to enjoy even more for longer. Other sites even allow you to play Blackjack, Coinflip, and Jackpot. Others also have raffles, markups, mines, and marketplaces. Some even let you play without requiring you to deposit skins.

The Real Deal

What makes this game “the real deal” is the fact that it’s unpredictable. It’s so dicey it’s becoming more and more exciting. You’ll never know when the game will crash. I mean, it can be anytime! What could be more fun than that? The doubt, the fear, the kick, the waiting time, the triumph, the skins, the virtual currency—they all make game stimulating. It’s the adrenalin rush that makes it amusing, addicting, and still in-demand after all this time.

The entertainment attached to the game is probably the reason why thousands of people are gambling using skins. In March 2016, for instance, over 38 million people visited one site that offered the game. It goes without saying, CS:GO Crash will remain popular for a long time.
